Turner prize shortlist announced

The Turner Prize shortlist for 2026 has been announced, featuring four artists: Simeon Barclay, nominated for his spoken-word performance 'The Ruin'; Tanoa Sasraku, recognized for her solo exhibition 'Morale Patch' exploring the political history of oil; Kira Freije, shortlisted for her first major solo show 'Unspeak the Chorus'; and Marguerite Humeau, nominated for her exhibition 'Torches'. The shortlist was selected by a jury chaired by Alex Farquharson, director of Tate Britain, who praised the diverse range of work spanning installation, performance, and sculpture. An exhibition of the shortlisted artists will be held at Teesside University's Middlesbrough Institute of Modern Art (Mima) from September 2026 to March 2027, with the winner announced on December 10, 2026, receiving £25,000.

Tanoa Sasraku: ‘I don’t see that the work needs to live forever’

The Institute of Contemporary Arts (ICA) in London has opened "Morale Patch," an exhibition of new work by Plymouth-born multimedia artist Tanoa Sasraku. The show centers on "Watchlist," a commission featuring a collection of branded trinkets from oil companies, and "Subdued Morale Patch," a series of experimental works on paper created using a novel printing technique with water and ultraviolet light. Sasraku's work explores raw materials, particularly crude oil, as a vehicle to examine themes of national identity and conflict, drawing on her collection of military ephemera and corporate oil-industry mementos.
